Holocaust On Trial, The


by D D Guttenplan

Read by Victor Kateck (1 Cd)

This is a fascinating book though written in a somewhat academic style. It recounts the story of the libel action brought by David Irving against Deborah Lipstadt in 2000 for claiming that he was a Holocaust denier. The action was brought jointly against Professor Lipstadt and her publisher Penguin Books. The outcome of the trial was by no means certain and Guttenplan traces the legal wranglings and witness' evidence superbly, expertly portraying the various characters concerned. In addition she muses on such other relevant factors as the nature of history itself and how it is recorded and the influence of the politics of Jewish identity and

anti-Semitism. No. 1562

Hurrah For The Blackshirts!


by Martin Pugh

Read by Anita Boston (1 Cd)

Timely and original, this book reveals for the first time how close Britain came to being a fascist state in the inter-war years. It is rich in anecdotes and extraordinary characters, and shows us an inter- war Britain on the high road to fascism, but never quite arriving at its destination. Fascist organisations may have failed to attract the support they achieved elsewhere, but fascist ideas were adopted from top to bottom of society and by men and women in all parts of the country.

I Am Jewish


by Judea & Ruth Pearl Read by Clive Roslin

This is a fascinating book, put together by the parents of Daniel Pearl who was brutally murdered in Pakistan. His last words have inspired many people, he said 'I am Jewish'. Three profoundly and simply said words made many of us think what was meant. With this thought in mind his parents invited many writers and others, all Jewish , to explain what 'I Am Jewish' means to them. This is a fascinating, at times awe-inspiring, and thought-provoking book. It will leave you feeling moved and it will stay in your mind for a long time.

This is a very light-hearted collection of Maureen Lipman's recollections and witticisms of events in her theatrical life. Often quite ordinary events are re-told with humour, jokes and
